Friends of the Third Age (F3A) was set up as a joint partnership project of Chen Li Presbyterian Church and Presbyterian Community Services (PCS) to serve the senior citizens in the Haig Road vicinity. The objective was to introduce programmes that would enhance the life of the elderly citizens and in turn to promote a spirit of continuous learning amongst them. Moreover, the organisation is devoted to developing the virtue of respecting the elderly in the younger generation. In response to the emerging needs of the elderly in Geylang Serai, F3A began to play an integral role as strategic partners with the South East CDC through its Community Outreach Programme for Elderly (COPE) at Haig Road. It was officially launched on 7 June 2009.

​Services provided by F3A:

• Befriending and Home Visitation Services
• Wellness Programmes
• Intergenerational Programmes
